The Sentence Production Program for Aphasia is a completely revised edition of the Helm Elicited Language Program for Syntax Stimulation (HELPSS).
In using the program, you present a brief story with a picture. Then you elicit target phrases from the client using first delayed repetition (Level A) and then without benefit of repetition (Level B). Once the client has mastered 15 examples in each of eight sentence types the client moves on to the next sentence type.
The eight sentence types in order of difficulty are as follows: Imperative Intransitive; Imperative Transitive; Wh- Interrogative, What & Who; Wh- Interrogative, Where & When; Declarative Transitive; Declarative Intransitive; Comparative; and Yes-No Questions.
